Getting a much ignored blog working

    Basically i've had my blog for a year, and its been ignored for so long. i've dragged myself inot sprucing it up, and making a major effort in sorting it out, getting it up and running, and keeping it up to date.

    im looking for advice on doing this.

    Its a general all purpose blog. to keep myself going, ive opened it up to friends, and a few are working on articles and stuff for me to put in it for them. Having more than myself contributing should keep me interested, and stop me putting things off.

    This week i've been mostly messing with the structure, template and colour scheme. Also been trying to create a proper logo other than the ****ty experiment logo im using, as well as a proper name for the blog site.

    So, anyone with ideas, advice etc, please help :)

    I personnaly hate blogger.com - It is not pretty and the features are very limited.
    There is so much better out there.
    I personally use Wordpress with plugins, with my own domain names. Full freedom and plenty of customisation possible.

    With regards to your site, it could look a lot better yeah for sure.

    Now the traffic will come around on its own if you write some good articles, I mean no offense, but writting on a blog about the increase of cigarette prices in Ireland since the last couple of years, is not something extremelly exciting to know about if you know what I mean. All countries regularly increase taxes years after years.

    Having a blog is easy. Having traffic is another story.

    Firstly, get a domain

    Secondly, switch themes, as I found it really difficult to read
